Coroner requests Houston’s drug records
The Los Angeles coroner investigating Whitney Houston’s death has requested all of her medical records to determine what drugs she was taking at the time of her passing.
The icon, who had a history of substance abuse, was found unconscious and underwater in a bathtub in her Los Angeles hotel room on Saturday.
An autopsy performed on Sunday proved inconclusive and the cause of death has been deferred pending toxicology results, although reports suggest alcohol and prescription pills could have played a part in her demise.
